Gaza’s 37m tonnes of bomb-filled debris could take 14 years to clear, says expert

  • A senior official from the UN Mine Action Service revealed that clearing 37 million tonnes of debris in Gaza post-Israeli offensive is a massive task.
  • Unexploded ordnance complicates the cleanup process, making it challenging, according to UNMAS official Pehr Lodhammar with experience in mine programs.
  • Lodhammar estimated the debris at 37 million tonnes, which equals 300 kilos per square meter, would take hypothetically 14 years to clear with 100 trucks.
